New Blood Orange is out! Essex Honey is softer overall than his other records, but if you're a fan, you'll be into it.

as for other stuff, lost of Dabuell, Ferdi, Holybrune, L'Imperatrice, etc.
Great stuff!
edit: Là-haut feels like an Air song
I was afraid he'd given up doing solo work to focus on production and scores.
I've really been softer music lately, like Charlotte Day Wilson, Maggie Rogers, Sufjan Stevens, etc, b/c I feel that these types of gentle, almost dreamy songs are weirdly transcendental, almost sparking this distinct feeling of anemoia.

After a quick trip down memory lane last time, this time I've been listening a bunch of jazz-type music this week, lots of good ones!
brother by AMHO: Chill little modern jazz and R&B crossover piece with some warm piano chords, subtle synths and laid-back drums.
Kadoshin by Jesus Molina: Contemporary jazz/gospel fusion with some beautiful piano mixed with electric bass and fluid drums. A perfect combo of worshipful chord progressions and modern jazz.
Spiral Dream by COSMOS (unofficial YouTube Link): Quintessential Japanese city-pop/jazz-fusion from the 80s. Bright synths, electric pianos, and funky bass. Love it!
And last but not least:
Explorer by T-SQUARE: Beautiful jazz fusion with sax, electric guitar, and bass that is just pure sex. That bassy intro is just so addicting.
Jesus Molina is great! Only got into him this year, I’ve been mostly sessioning Departing.
Yeah I'm slowly going through his discography now after hearing Kadoshin haha, he's got some great music!
The videogame Astroneer soundtrack. Great background music for reading.
